From what I know, the only way to kill these is to bomb them. melee does hardly anything to them.

Comment by Vordea

They have ALOT more HP than WoWHead says. Mobinfo2 reports 1.1 million HP for the horde guards.

Comment by PyroShizZz

Well, Technically the tick is from 1% of their total HP and the damage tick is of "11,828" Damage, so just add two "0s" and you have their total health which is "1,182,800" HP, they could make the perfect raid boss if they would hit at least 10 times harder than usual.

Comment by xhiz

Vordea there write they got 1,182,800 HP tahts is 1.1 million ...And yes only way to kill these guys same as aliance guards is to bomb them

Comment by IslandAtWar

I wish I had read these comments before I thought "Hey, Horde Halaani Guard at half health! Victory will be mine!"

I was pounding away, critting more than I can remember in a row, and thinking it was glitched because surely I'd done more than 1% of their health after a while. And then I saw the health bar move and knew my time was up. Over a million HP? Bombs away!

I acually tried and did kill these with melee. It took 2.5 hours but hey i don't really care! Of course i care! 2.5 hours of a video but faster forwarded so i can put on youtube!

In contrary of what is state above, youcan kill these by conventional attacks. Ranged, melee and spelldamage can be dealt to them and it will eventually kill them. It took me quite some time till I got one of these to 80%, but ran out of pots to keep it up.

Oh, and don't bother kiting them: They are protected by some invisible leach, making them run-and-evade back to safe Halaa as soon as you pull them approx. 100 yards away from the bridges.

It took me about 3 mins with a group of three but i finaly killed one!

Comment by trace138

witch quest lets u bomb them or what item ?

Comment by Repaxan

For a level 80 Survival hunter using a gorilla tank pet, it takes about 5 minutes to kill each guard.

Which is actually faster than bombing them.

Comment by Uropa

I can solo them with my lvl 63 prot warrior (good gear)takes about 60 minutes per guard every once in a while gotta fear them then bandage.

not really worth it ive killed a few haven't droped a thing.

Comment by CountKill

I hear your plight. I was dropping bombs like crazy today! No Horde got in my way and eventually one other person helped me by gathering them up in one spot (Feral Druid). I was able to bomb them more efficiently and with her swipes and self healing crits, they went down shortly. But after that I announced that we had retaken Halaa and the Alliance came in droves. I wanted to barricade the town seeing as how they didn't help even with my repeated requests but they just waltzed on in as if they deserved it and helped us in our Victory... made me sick. /spit

Comment by Jokar

did it with 80 pally (ret), get them all in the middle (15 guards) and get a friend or even 60s ppl around nagrand to bomb them...took me 5mins to finish it with a friend

Comment by Jrubzjeknf

Feral druids can round 'm up (pull the ones at the bridges with taunt, otherwise the ones on you may run back) and keep swiping. It'll take some time but you'll kill all guards just by swiping, while iLotP heals you.

Comment by Mimichu

Okay... I killed them all and it's in alliance hands... But it still says 'Guards Remaining = 0/15" So how do I switch it so I can turn in quests? D:

Oh never mind, the bar thing has to be all the way over.

Comment by extroletje

easy to solo on lvl 80. They don't hit very hard but it takes a while to kill them.

Comment by Keshia87

I just soloed all 15 guards by myself on a lvl 85 mage. I didn't take hardly any damage, but with 1.2 mil health, these guys take forever to die! I tried using the bombs a few times, but you'd have to bomb a whole bunch before they died anyways. I found head on combat preferable and quicker.

Other thing I took a while figuring out, is that afterwards you have to stay flagged pvp and stay in Halaa in order for it to become alliance. It is all extremely time consuming, but hopefully worth it.

If I ever have to do this in the future, I will drag along a few friends so it doesn't take so long!

Comment by yasuhiko135

What sword do they use?I wanna see if i can get one for my pala, make a 'blood-knight' set for him. I already have the Tabard and the full Warlord's Aegis and i know where to get the Shield, but im debating what sword i wanna useatm im thinking of using Blackguard.

Comment by Darlack

Killed 5 of these on my 85 pala. <3 opadins.

Comment by Omnom18

Solo'd as a level 65 Retridin. Did two from about 20%, then got one at 1080k health remaining.To solo these as a Retribution Paladin, there is a talent you must have, being Sacred Shield. Talents that will help are the Art of War and Divine Purpose. The gear I used are as follows:Circle's Stalwart Helm, Pendant of Battle Lust, Marshstrider's Spaulders,Watcher's Cloak of Vigilence ( Gemmed: +6 Strength, + 3 Crit and +3 Strength, +2 Hit), Breastplate of Retribution, Stalwart Bands of the Bear (+12 Strength), Stalwart Grips of the Squire (+15 Strength), Belt of the Gladiator, Azureplate Greaves, Expedition Footgear, Band of the Ogre King, Band of Noble Deeds, Bladefist's Breath, Omarion's Gift, Blade of Misfortune (+70 Attack), Libram of Fervor (Gemmed: +6 Strength)

You will not need to use Divine Shield or Lay on Hands in the fight if you are careful. If Sacred Shield does not proc, better use your Holy Power on Word of Glory IMMEDIATELY.At 65, expect 541 experience and an insignificant amount of silver for your 20+ minutes of non-stop button mashing.

Comment by Vaximillian

You don't need any quest to be able to bomb them. Use Wyvern Roosts instead. You'll be given 10 Fire Bombs that hit the Guards for 60k HP each from a back of a Wyvern. With bombs, it's really piece of cake to kill all of them.

Comment by Cloudblueyes

These guys do not drop cards btw. They drop runecloth.

Comment by Thairalumen

When I first saw them I thought, "Why yes, that would make Elves more fit for the Horde." Red lines on black? Good combination!

Comment by Ogros

They have 703K health now. These guys take so long to kill that they effectively function as DPS-test target dummies. Next time someone in chat asks where the target dummies in Shatt are, tell them they're over in Halaa.
